Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I had been buying Osmocote for years. The fertilizer is terrific, my plants loved it and so did I. I don't love it anymore. Approximately five years ago, I'm guessing, the fertilizer consisted of small solid balls of fertilizer that fed the plant and dissolved over time. Now, that small ball is no longer a solid ball of fertilizer but a plastic ball covered with fertilizer. When the fertilizer dissolves off, you're left with dozens and dozens of small white plastic balls in your soil. We don't need more plastic introduced into the environment. I've seen birds trying to eat the plastic balls! I angry that this manufacturer is now giving us a product that's terrible for the environment and fools us into buying a product which is likely 1/2 solid plastic. I will no longer buy Osmocote for these reasons.
